  1. No when you only run big sticks then that’s all you know and you can reload whenever you want. I didn’t like practicing with both sizes so I switch a couple years ago and would never go back
  2. I love MBX and only run big sticks. I have 4 and all run 30+1 very reliably
  3. I was and several people and dillion recommended putting a piece of scotch tape on the non moving bar to close up the gap and that fixed the issue. Once that worked, per dillions recommendation, I contacted them again to let them know it worked and they sent me an oversized powder bar.
  4. I run all 170s. I switched because I did not like having to start with a 140 and then load to a big stick as it felt different. So I started practicing big stick reloads and found that my times are faster so now I run all big sticks. The extra weight argument is dumb, just load the 2nd stick to what you need.
  5. Yep. 4 screws and mine is off so that is not permanent.

    1:00 Tracking

    mine also track to the 1:30 position and I have spoke with several dot shooting (CO and Open) and this holds true for them as well. For me it is all about if it does the same thing every time and returns to the same spot.
  7. Yes and no, but if he doesn't know he would at least know who does.
  8. I am with you. Most of the time I don't register as LEO and most matches do not recognize it anyway. The one time I did register as LEO was at Nationals and that was kinda cool as I got to identify who else was a copper and met some nice people from around the county and world.
  9. I don’t have the Brazos but if you want something further back try a nitro fin. When I bought my open gun it had the nitro fin and a cmore. I did not like that set up but it brings it a long ways back. I have the nitro fin and no need for it if you are interested. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. I would lean towards you have a gun set up for minor and are trying to run major. Major is going to push the slide way faster than minor. With the lighter recoil spring for minor it is simply letting the slide recoil too fast and making it hard for the extractor to do its job. Try using a 1-2 pound heavier recoil spring for major and see if that helps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    RIA Open Gun

    Just finished mine up. Kkm barrel binary engineering comp bushnell advance dot. Around 1500 rounds. The gun appears plenty stout and I am really loving it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Buy loaded 9 major from a reloading ammo company is an option as well. I think 9 major with titegroup is risky. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Yep. It performs just as it should. Good quality and good performance. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
  16. I enjoy having all types at matches, but as you said you are not competitive so what does it matter?
  17. I use to shoot one. I really liked it. It ran perfect and parts where not that bad to get. Trigger needs some work otherwise you will have a lot of take up and a long reset. All that being said 2011 are super cheap and readily available on the forum. If a Tanfo goes down at a match there is not going to be anyone there with a spare or parts unlike a 2011 which almost half the field will have.
  18. This year has been about nationals. Started off CO, I am now shooting SS, and after Classic Nationals I will be shooting Prod.
  19. First welcome to USPSA and second nice shooting. Here are a couple things I saw right away. Move with a purpose, grip hard (already said), work on transitions, It looks like you are aiming a lot which I am sure comes from IDPA, but you can get away with a fairly sloppy sight picture for the target distances we shoot. Also don't stick you r gun into ports if you have to come back out of it. It is slower and better chance of getting ahead of the gun and breaking the 180.
  20. I have run them on my 1911 for 2 seasons now and they have been great. Hands down some of the best customer service.
  21. Depends on the range. Lots of 3 gun matches are outlaw so yeah it is probably allowed.
  22. ORM Tech ammunition also has 9 major
  23. so area 5 was a similar issue. first 3 were just under so he shoots the 2nd 3 ( which actually made it on there own, but I told him he needs to take the best 3. Same song of not my first time. I showed his the rule and also the fact that the chrono sheets say right on them best 3 of 6. Know the rules and be confident, not angry, when trying to get the right call.
  24. Stop slap the mag after you reload. Ha. I use to do that as well. It looks like a couple times you forgot where you where going next. Make sure you are going through your plan to the point you do not have think about it. Stage 5 work on your activator sequence. Low hanging fruit as you just stood there for at least a second to shoot the clam. Foot work looks solid and so does your grip. I don't normally suggest to people to shoot more matches as it is practice that most people need, but I think more matches will help with stage plans and how best to shoot activators.
